About
Greetings, my name is Shanel, and I hail from Massachusetts, though I was born in Jamaica. I have a profound affinity for working with children and a genuine interest in their educational development.... I completed my college education in 2019, which equipped me with the foundational knowledge and skills necessary for effective teaching. While I have gained experience working with students of various age groups, I have discovered that my true passion lies in guiding and educating young learners, specifically in the K-6 age range.
My teaching philosophy revolves around making the learning experience not only informative but also enjoyable and stress-free. I believe that fostering a positive and relaxed atmosphere in the classroom or tutoring sessions can greatly enhance a student's understanding of English grammar. By creating a fun and engaging learning environment, I aim to demystify the complexities of grammar and make it more accessible to my students.
I would like to assure you that with my dedication and commitment to teaching, I am determined to provide your students with a better grasp of English grammar. I am enthusiastic about the opportunity to work with you and your young learners, helping them embark on a journey to improve their language skills in an enjoyable and enriching way. If you have any specific questions or would like to discuss how I can tailor my teaching approach to meet your objectives, please do not hesitate to reach out.read more
